How to find 2019 order?

[stiner321]

I purchased an item in 2019 that I need to replace. How do I find that 2019 order? The only options I find when I go to "my ebay " are for 2021, 2022, and 2023. Is that it? Am I just out of luck?

If you paid through PayPal, you can probably find it there faster by running an activity report for 2019.  If not, you can order a report from eBay, but it takes about a week to get.  Go to account settings >> request your eBay data.

If you just need the title and seller, and you’re good about leaving feedback, read through your feedback left while you are waiting for the report.

Thanks for the help.  I couldn't find my way via PayPal. So, I ordered the eBay report. I wouldn't ever have found it without your guidance. It's not an urgent matter. It will be interesting to see what I receive.

I will say that I've been harboring a little pipe dream for about 5 years . . . that eBay would soon get more sophisticated and catch up a bit to amazon.com.  The lack of ease finding historical purchase information readily available on amazon.com is just another example of it not happening. It's not a criticism, just a disappointment.  

Combined with a bad run lately getting wrong/shoddy merchandise from eBay sellers, or not receiving the paid for merchandise, has left me hesitant to shop eBay at all, sadly.

Not a complaint. It is what it is. I am sometimes unrealistically optimistic. I'll temper that.

Thank you, again for your prompt and helpful response.

If you exchanged feedback for that transaction, check your feedback left or received. You may be able to find the transaction and see the title and seller that way.
